There are direct lines from Moscow only to Cairo. They take you to the beach through Istanbul and Antalya.

In the spring, TO sold tours from the regions to Egypt via Antalya, but then this flight program was removed, now you can get to Egypt from Russia only on your own, without TO.

Russians fly mainly through Minsk. (Everyone I met in Egypt). It is possible through Ukraine. We have practically from all regional centers, except for those occupied by Russia

I met Russians from Voronezh and Kursk, they organized a transfer from the cities to Kharkov airport and back

Familiar residents of Chelyabinsk flew through Kustanai.
Many fly through Kyiv or Kharkov, less often - through Minsk

As far as I know, many Russians fly to the sea via Istanbul or Minsk. Direct flights only to Cairo.

We fly to Egypt all the time.
The easiest way is through Istanbul.
It is possible through Cairo by Aeroflot and EgyptAir, then by EgyptAir or by bus to KM.
From the Central region it is possible through Belarus, but this is the most expensive option.
From the Urals and Siberia, they fly with maintenance through Kazakhstan
Through Europe with the German TUI, the most beloved.

a friend flew through Istanbul to Cairo, in Istanbul she caught a chip: if there is a big break between planes, a free hotel and an excursion. She liked it. I ask you not to accuse me of love for a freebie - this is the official "compliment" from Turkish Airlines.
relatives fly from us - but young people need an invitation to the country

Last year, in the winter, I met some stubborn people flying through Israel, then to Sharm by bus. The funny thing is that they had only a week of vacation with flights, that is, in fact, they were at sea for a maximum of five days. And so the cheapest option, if you are not afraid of Bandera and do not live beyond the Urals or somewhere else very far away, is to fly through Kyiv. From Kyiv you can always find cheaper options.
аватар ollennka
And what, in fact, are the criteria for "stubbornness"? Judging by the questions on TurPravda, people travel in herds from Sharm to Israel by bus, and in the opposite direction, they are already "stoned"))). I believe that it will also take more than one hour to get to Kyiv by bus or train.
And then there’s nowhere to put a stigma on me, because I go on vacation from Vladimir, from where it’s a four-hour drive to the nearest airport by car one way.
аватар zolyshka111
At the expense of stubbornness and driving from Sharm to Israel, two people go there on an excursion for a day and back to the hotel to rest. And in this particular case, people were really stubborn, to go on vacation for a week, where to spend three days on the road in total, is this really adequate? They were from near Moscow and when I asked why they didn’t just spend the night on the train to Kyiv and voila, after 4 hours you are in Sharm, they just said that you have Bandera and they don’t let you through at the border. This is common sense, don't you think?
P.S. The owner is a gentleman, fly to Egypt even through Papua New Guinea, to be honest, I won’t be surprised even by such a route of the Russians.
аватар ollennka
You count time in a strange way. Two nights on the train and the road in Kyiv from the station to the airport - this is also one and a half to two days on the road, thrown out of vacation. And cases of non-passing at the border are quite real, perhaps these specific tourists have already had an unpleasant experience.
I don’t drown here for Egypt, I wouldn’t go there by night trains and buses either. But I go to some places with three transfers by plane, and with night travel by bus, contrary to common sense. Tourism is simply a disease. Incurable))).

zolyshka111, regarding the departure from Kyiv:
As of August 2019, male citizens of the Russian Federation aged 16 to 60 are prohibited from visiting Ukraine and they fall into the “risk zone”. In this regard, an additional interview is introduced when crossing the border of Ukraine. Exceptions may apply on a case-by-case basis:
diplomatic status in Ukraine; TRP, residence permit in Ukraine; transport service personnel; humanitarian trip...
that is, at the border they can easily wrap up - and the rest is gone. so it turns out through Israel more adequately ...
аватар Slav_na
don't fight girls! (from)
аватар ollennka
Let's not forget that Israel, too, with its cockroaches at the border, may not be allowed in there either.
It seems to me that the most appropriate option is to fly through Istanbul: the transfer is minimal in time, there is no need to go through border control,
Flights are operated by good airlines.

Those who use transfers from Russian cities to Kharkov airport, if it is organized that the passengers on the bus are all tourists who bought a standard tour to Egypt, then they say that the package of documents for the tour is an indulgence for our border guards
Everyone knows that this is a business, maybe in the price of such transfers and what kind of interest for the border guards they lay.

There are agencies in the Russian Federation that sell tours to Egypt, for example, "travelata.ru" (online tour store). The package tour, in addition to the hotel, insurance, etc., also includes a flight to Cairo and a transfer to the hotel. True, the journey from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh by bus will take more than 6 hours. Many Russians fly to Sharm in transit through Antalya.
аватар ollennka
Given that the Cairo-Sharm plane costs less than a hundred bucks, it's better by plane.
аватар Natasha59
Why Egypt? And not Thailand or India, Vietnam, China? Hassle-free and cheaper?
аватар ollennka
))) Nichosi set of alternatives. Was in Thailand and Vietnam, nothing to do with Egypt and other Arab countries.
аватар Slav_na
Natasha59,
Well, first of all, the price of the issue. secondly, flight time. thirdly, a completely different climate. each has its own quirks.
аватар ollennka
The price will be just lower in Southeast Asia for half of Russia.
аватар Slav_na
ollennka,
given the comfort of the road "gardens", maybe you're right. in this case, the flight time is also probably less
but the climate ... after all, in Egypt it will be more gentle for our
аватар ollennka
Softer for our what?))) You just need a comfortable season in any country to choose.
About "gardens": You live in the capital of your country, you don't understand, but for most residents of the regions, "gardens on vacation" is an inevitable reality, everyone is used to it and does not moan. While I was living in Novosibirsk, I did not manage to go on a single vacation by direct flight, except for Thailand and Turkey. It takes 6.5 hours to fly to Istanbul, 7 hours to Bangkok, it doesn't really matter where you fly. And the farther to the east, the greater the ratio is not in favor of Turkey and Egypt.
Now I live in Vladimir, there is no airport at all! Only vegetable gardens remain))).
аватар Vika284
As for the scale and distances in Russia - Vladimir is practically next to Moscow, and there is much more choice of tours anywhere than from Kyiv, and there are more airports and flights from Moscow airports are orders of magnitude larger
аватар ollennka
I do not argue. But the extra six hours of taxiing to and from Moscow every vacation is very annoying. )))
аватар Slav_na
ollennka, hello to Vladimir! visited you a year ago.
but about the capital - yes, I agree, from my Kyiv to the same SHESh is more convenient for me than to Thailand. But from my own Novy Urengoy to Tai, nothing is closer to me - if only because, despite the presence of an airport, they don’t fly to either Bangkok or Phuket - 4 hours to Moscow first ...
аватар ollennka
What does Urengoy have to do with it? I talked about Siberia and the Far East. But even from Urengoy it would be more logical to fly to Bangkok through Novosibirsk, and not through Moscow.
аватар Slav_na
How about in Novosibirsk? only by waypoints - there is no direct flight, through Yoburg, Tyumen, Moscow again
аватар ollennka
You obviously moved a long time ago ... There is a direct line to Novosibirsk by "Siberia".
